"I've competed with world-class athletes and a handful of Navy SEALs, a group of insanely gifted and driven individuals, but Don Mann is more than a SEAL with an illustrious military background. The way through which he approaches life and inspires people in sports, business, and in all walks of life, is quite remarkable." - Mike Kloser, 4x World Champion Adventure Racer & World Mountain Bike Champion "I have known and trained with Don Mann since 2005. As a doctor, prior Navy, and a professional strength coach, I can honestly say I've learned my most important life skills for overcoming adversity from Don and his combat mindset/no boundaries training. It helped me to be a better business owner, doctor, husband, and man." - Dr. Stephen M. Erle, President, Integrative Regional Medical Center "Every leader who's ever set "stretch" goals for their team or themselves knows the first obstacle they have to overcome: self-doubt that the "unattainable" goal is really that. But Don Mann's life is example after example that the right mindset, and the right focus on achieving micro goals to get to macro one, can make the impossible real, again and again." - Vincent Valvo, CEO, American Business Media "Let's face it. We all have fear. But what do we do about it? Let it control us or us learn to control it? In Don's latest Facing Your Fears, he offers just that-a methodology to identifying your fears, taking ownership of them, and then overcoming them. And with Don's background in the SEALs, ultra-racing, mountain climbing, and other adventures, he is someone we should listen to on the subject. Without realizing it, I have used his recommended approach of gradual immersion therapy along with setting micro and macro goals all my life and have seen the results. If you regularly push yourself outside your comfort zone, the material in this book is a great reference to have in the back of your mind.
